Anyone else having repeated wifi connectivity issues with the OSX version 10.8.5?

I just updated the software on my iMac to OS X version 10.8.5. Now I am having repeated connectivity issues with the wifi in my house. This is the only device that is having these issues. My phone, ipad and tv are not having any problems at all.
It happened immediately following the update. I was sending emails and browsing before the update without a problem.
from apple:

I had a message like that last week - only it asked what browser I would be using - I just quit safari - purges caches etc - and at that time noticed I was getting RSS feeds through PUBSUB - tracking them down to the top sites view I never use - I deleted all of the top sites (most of which I don't go into so it must have been a preset) that included MSN and Google - I don't use google so that was pointless. (deleting a top site means you are blocking it from that page) Have not had the message since so it must have had something to do with top sites activity.
Just a note: Did see somewhere probably BBC tech - that Google was going to stop supporting older web browsers.

Anyone else having a problem like this with the order...

Like the rest of the world, I got up extra early to order our 2 new Iphones. I got a confirmation number but have yet to receive any email about the order. I have called Verizon a hundred times and they do not see my order. Everyone tells me "oh you have a confirmation number so you will be fine". I check endlessly the status of my order but it doesn't show anything there at all. The last girl I talked to said oh well your order may not have gone thru but we don't know. If you don't get a notification by the 9th then go online and pre-order again. I really do not want to be charged 2x $400 and get 4 phones. Anyone else out there having this problem?

Well just to update in case anyone wanted to know. Finally got someone at Verizon who said that the order did not go thru. I place another order on 2/9 at 3am and everything is going good now. They said the system went down on the 3rd for a short period of time.

Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements after Mac upgrade to Yosemite 10.10 on iMac

Is anyone else having Config error 16 issue when trying to start PSE 12 or Premier Elements 12 after the Mac upgrade to OS X Yosemite 10.10 on iMac. I have had a number of issues with software and things after upgrading to OS X Yosemite 10.10 and even 10.10.1. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 a number of times and everything goes fine until its ready to launch and then you get an error message. Numerous uninstalled and reinstalls don't removing the problem. Strangely enough PSE 11 still appears to boot up and I never owned Premier Elements 11 so I don't know if it will start. I thought with Apple dropping its Apeture software and greater integration of iPhoto and Apeture files into Lightroom 5.7 all would be harmonious between these two players. Im not sure where Adobe wants us to go it recently removed the plugin to allow you to update files from LR to Adobe Revel, whats up with that. I now own two version of Adobe software that no longer work with my Mac and now way of uploading pictures from Lightroom to Revel. Needless to say I am pretty reluctant to sign on to a subscription of Creative Cloud with long term financial obligations when I can't even get my current Adobe software to work independently much less integrate with Lightroom. Frustrated with it all!

Get rid of 'put disks to sleep when possible' and you may see a dramatic improvement (not necessarily a cure).
That specific problem is a multiple-Processor (including graphics processor) problem, where one of the processors lost track of whether it should be responding to interrupts. You may have a Hardware problem.

problem with updated find my iPhone (FMi) app: when I attempt to open the FMi app, it tells me that I need to be a registered developer and run iOS7 to do so; is anyone else having this problem? I got the app as a regular update to my existing FMi app which worked great.

The problem is being reported in the news media, yes. Apparently someone at Apple jumped the gun and uploaded the update before it was ready. They'll probably issue another update shortly, I would expect, but you can go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. If you have a backup copy of the older version of the app, remove the newer version, restore the old version to iTunes on your computer, and resync.
Update: Well, that was certainly quick. As of a short time ago, various sites are reporting that the Find My iPhone app is no longer displaying the previous error message. If it still is for you, delete it from your iPhone and re-download from the iTunes Store.
Regards.

Has anyone else had a screen separation problem with the ipad?

Has anyone else had a screen separation problem with the ipad?

Does it really matter whether anyone else has? If you have, that's a problem for you whether or not anyone else has experienced the same issue. Call Apple tech support or take the iPad to an Apple Store, if there's one in your area, and they'll replace the iPad unless it's determined that the problem was caused by some sort of accident rather than a factory defect.
Regards.

Anyone else having extra long delivery time for the late 2013 macbook pro 15" 2.6ghz 1tb model?

Anyone else having extra long delivery time for the late 2013 macbook pro 15" 2.6ghz 1tb model?
As of today feb 15 i have been waiting for 78 days. Finland doesn't have an official apple store (only authorized resellers) It was my mistake because i should have bought from apple.com. But i think 2.5 months is too long and i have no information about when i can get it..

The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 256 GB SSD costs $2,000.
The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,300.
With 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD it costs $2,500.
The high-end 15” rMBP with a 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,600.
All cost $500 dollars more with a 1 TB SSD.
So the SSD size is not a differentiating factor unless you prefer 256 GB.
If you think you need 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD then you might as well spend the extra $100 for the high-end model.
The high-end model will make a difference on gaming and graphics-oriented applications.
They tend to run other applications at about the same speed.
Both models are rated with 8 hours of battery life.
Benchmarks on PhotoShop comparing memory sizes: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5659174?tstart=30
The speed was about 10% different between 8 GB and 16 GB models.
On other applications your mileage may vary.
Application benchmarks:
http://www.macworld.com/article/2059215/15-inch-retina-macbook-pro-review-a-tale -of-two-laptops.html
The low-end and high-end performed the about the same on non-graphics oriented applications.
Graphics oriented benchmarks:
On the Cinebench OpenGL benchmark the high-end was about twice as fast.
On the Unigine Heaven Benchmark benchmark they ran at about the same speed.
On the Unigine Valley Benchmark benchmark the high-end was about 1.5x as fast.

LR5 Issues with the CC Version?

Hello,
I've had a few deal-breaking issues with the released version of LR5 for Windows and read about several others. There seems to be some consistency with the types of issues people are having with, at least, the Windows version of the software. I think that Adobe is splitting the code stream with LR5 since it is offered as both a stand-alone product and as part of the Creative Cloud.
Done with LR5
Spot Removal Mouse Movement
(several other issues are mentioned within the above threads)
I am wondering of any Creative Cloud users of LR5 are having the same problems that have been reported in this forum with the stand-alone version.
Thanks,
~Steve

Experiencing same problems with spot removal in Lightroom CC (2015).
I'm going to look for a new LR CC thread but posting here for now.
Using iMac 5K
4Ghz i7
16GB Ram
AMD Radeon R9 M290X 2048 MB
Wacom Intuos 3. Performance with tablet slower than mouse but still lots of lag with the mouse. Again, slower when 1:1 but also plenty of lag when FIT.
Anyone having similar experience with LR CC - thoughts much appreciated?

Has anyone else lost their scroll bars after downloading the newest version of IOS?

Has anyone else lost their scroll bars after downloading the newest version of IOS?

What does the iPhone/iPad OS have to do with Mavericks?
Mavericks does remove the scroll bars as they are not needed, but you can set them to show always in the General System Prefs.

Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 Windows XP Thanks.

Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 . Using Windows XP Driving me nuttier! Thanks.
(Is is that MicroNetFrame Asst thing?)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== When I installed latest version

Thanks for your reply. I appreciate your help.
It was just a hunch that MircoNetFrame was causing the problem. I disabled it as you suggested, and I still have the problem.
I just changed under Tools>Options> General - had checked "ask me every time" under downloads, so instead of asking me, FF saved the download to I know not where. It no longer saves it to the desktop, leaving a duplicate in "my documents".
In windows, I have found unless one knows the entire name of the document, one can never find anything. It isn't listed under recent ''''''__. I can't recall the nomenclature, but the
capability is ridiculous. So, I don't know where that file I just downloaded is!
I downloaded a PDF file, but this happens with all DL's. It was so easy to have them all stacked in one place and I could recall
what I had and when I downloaded it easily.
Do you have any other suggestions other that going back to the old version of FF, which I would rather not do?
Thanks again for your time, it is very considerate to help a complete stranger, I must say. Sounds like something I might do! Cheers!

Is anyone having WiFi connectivity issues with 6.02

Is anyone else having problems with connectivity to WiFi hotspots since upgrading to 6.02. I have an iPhone 5, and ever since I upgraded, I can't connect to public hotspots without first restarting the phone. An example would be AT&T WiFi at Starbucks. All I get is an endlessly spinning gear icon unitl I restart my phone. I'm currently traveling and staying in a Sheraton with free public WiFi in the lobby, and once again, I can't get the logon page to display without restarting the phone. While the problem seems most prevelant with sites that require the opening of a web page to accept terms, it happened to me today at someones house where the only way I could successfully connect to their wireless was to restart. Until I did, the gear icon just kept spinning. Once I restarted I was able to connect successfully. This is becoming a major PITA!
I sure hope that engineering gets this corrected in 6.1. I expect more of Apple than to say they've upgraded iOS to fix WiFi issues, only to make them worse.

I have this same issue. I'm hoping there is another update in the works. I finally got the issue resolved when my new Iphone 6+ continued to crash so now I'm dealing with internet issues. Phone resets are not helping!

TS1398 Has anyone had WiFi connectivity issues with their iPhone 5 after accepting the latest IOS 8.0.2?

Has anyone had WiFi connectivity issues at home with their iPhone 5 after accepting the recent IOS 8.0.2 update?

Yes, despite being it an iPhone5 (8.0.2) attempting to connect to an Airport Express.
In my case the iPhone "connects" to Airport Express 2nd generation, but no Internet packages are available; Airport Utility shows the Airport Express as not connected to the Internet; but the iMac, MBP, Motorola phone, Samsung Smart TV and HP printer connect without any trouble.
The actual issue is the DHCP :
sometimes the iPhone gets none, and
when an address is assigned it just doesn't work,
even renewing the address won't work all the times,
switching off and on the WiFi won't work all the times neither,
going on Airplane mode, then back won't work all the times.
Solutions attempted and failed:
Reseting and reconfiguring Airport Express;
Reseting iPhone;
Switching off and on the iPhone;
Setup the DHCP renewal for every 5 days;
Meditation and stark visualisation;
Other possible patch not yet attempted : setting fixed IP addresses
All suggestions received resemble Windows' "Plug & Pray"
I gave up after reading several notes around the WWW complaining about it.
Last credible suggestion : wait for 8.0.3 or 8.1, whichever fixes the issue first.

Is anyone else having iPad 2 wireless issues?

I'm on my second iPad 2, the first one had issues staying connected to my airport extreme and had very slow download and upload speeds. The apple store replaced it and the second one seemed to stay connected fine but was still very slow on the internet compared to my iPhone and iMac. I use Speed Test and have repeatedly seen very slow speed results when testing all three devices one after the other. Now it seems that the issue with connectivity is getting worse and the speed test remain very slow in comparison. I did a test on my iPhone today are got very fast speed and the iPad 2 wouldn't even connect to the wireless. This is very frustrating as I decided to spend the extra $ for the wireless feature. Anyone else having these issues and what would you do? Any fixes or updates coming soon from Apple? Love the devise otherwise.

My iPad2 has recently experieced dropped connectivity problems as well. At first I thought it was an issue because I just got my wife the 4th gen iPad and as soon as she started using it I started having these problems. I can connect if I'm sitting next to the router (Time Capsule), but if I move out more than twenty feet the connection gets weaker and eventually disconnects. This only happens with the iPad2, my wife's original iPad still maintains a strong signal as does her new one, same with all the MacBook Pros we have. It's not the router since I have tried it with others with the same result.
I have done all the suggested steps by Apple User Maunual and by Discussion groups members
1. rebooted the iPad2 and Time Capsule
2. Reset Network settings
3. Established separate channel 6 for 2.4ghz versus 5.ghz
4. Shut off Auto- Brightness and turn up Brightness to full.
5. I even wiped all the data, apps, etc clean and started over.
I still have the problem. Quite frustrating to say the least. There still may be an issue between 2.4ghz devices and those that are also 5.ghz, but I haven't solved it yet. Or maybe it's a hardware antenna issue.

Anyone else experience iOS 8 iPad issues with multitasking gestures?

I've had several instances where the multitasking gestures do not respond on my iPad mini. When using the 4-finger swipe up (equivelent to double click the home button), instead of entering the multitasking view, the visible app senses me trying to scroll. I tried this gesture from the Settings app in landscape mode and both sides of the app scrolled. Restarting my iPad fixes this issue temporarilly.
On another occasion, while trying to switch between apps by swiping left to right with 4 fingers, SpringBoard crashed and restarted.
Anyone else seeing these kinds of issues? How best to report to Apple?

Yes, I have this on an iPad Air after updating to IOS 8. The pinch option seems to randomly quit working. It you go to Settings and turn off Multitasking Gestures, leave Settings, and go back in to Settings and re-enable Multitasking Gestures it works again for a while but will then randomly quit again. It seems like it is only the pinch option that quits working.
I have found that when I have the problem I can pull down the Notification screen, or pull up the settings screen using the one finger swipe up or swipe down option and then the pinch options works again. Since I found this circumvention and don't have to toggle the setting it is not as annoying, but I still wind up trying to pinch multiple times before I realize it has quit working so I agree this should be fixed soon.

Why won't Apple fix the wifi connectivity problem with the iMac and new OS instead of just havin us go through hours of useless mock fixes!

I have spent hours with apple care about this problem with wifi connectivity. According to all the posts I'm not alone. I love my new IMAC
but i'll be glad to go back to my PC just so I can get my email without all the headaches. It seems that Apple has lost interest in
the IMAC and all of the problems associated with the new OS.

Keep in mind that ASC is where people go to get help, so yes, you are seeing reports of people who are having WiFi connection issues. But while it might seem like there are lots of people having trouble, given the sheer number of iMacs in use, it is a very small number. Also keep in mind that WiFi isn't totally under Apple's control. There are dozens of WiFi routers. Even worse, the manufacturers of WiFi routers often release firmware upgrades to fix flaws without ever informing the consumer. And just to add to the confusion, while WiFi 801.2 n routers have been sold for several years, for most of that time there was no agreed upon standard!
So if you'd like help, first, what router do you have and have you checked the vendor site to see that it has the latest firmware?
